Let’s talk to breathwork HERO Mike Maher….youtubes #1 man in breathwork, why? 

Breath work has been transformative for me over the last 3-4 years, starting off with aiding my recovery from Long Covid, then for using it as a reset tool for my CNS, and more recently as a self exploration tool - to deepen my connection to self. 

In this interview with Mike Maher from Take A Deep Breath (a youtube channel with over 250,000 subscribers), we talk about why breathwork is so powerful, the different techniques we can use and why we would use them, what the length of breath does, mouth vs nasal breathing, what we are experiencing with the breath, what resources we can call upon to do breathwork, how and why he got into it, and much more.

This little advanced planning technique could see you get a lot out of your year in ALL areas of your life. By using the year periodisation method you are able to zoom out and plan around lifes key moments, but importantly create powerful intentions and processes for the natural chunks your life will have - which we can call the seasons of our year. 

I've recently put this process back into my life planning as I got caught out in the back end of 2024 with not doing this and getting a bit lost and overwhelmed. Now I'm back on track.

I'll also highlight some other key tips to get the most out of life and live it in a truly balanced way.

This is one of my favourite quotes in life “There are no ordinary moments”. This quote is from the book The Peaceful Warrior by Dan Millman, an incredible book. This quote has a lot of depth to it, and I want to open up this quote and how we can steer our life to new and unimaginable heights if we start to live our life through it.

What is your life showing you you need to do?

What keeps turning up in your life, and are you listening?

Are you being heart led in life, or head let?

If you’re unhappy right now, this quote is something you need to understand, because it could have a truly life changing impact on your life. The friction we all see and feel in our world, as well as the beautiful moments that the universe is trying to show us is all painting a future picture of our life, all we need to do is really tune in, and truly magical things will happen.

When you have a growth mindset you can fall foul of a few things that can actually hold you back. You can A. Do too much that you don’t actually master what it is you need to B. You don’t really learn and master skills and C. You don’t spend enough time on the macro, but the micro. Which is an issue because it's the macro that steers the ship in the direction you actually want to go.

In this podcast I’ll explore a little secret I don’t talk about enough, something that will very quickly see you get the space you need to progress your life in the way you want and dream of. AND, I’ll highlight the roadblocks and issues you’ll encounter along the way, both mentally and physically - especially with family members.

In my last show all about sleep I got a lot of follow up questions about how I physically apply this and the exact techniques I personally use.

So, I’m going to quickly detail my exact bedtime routine, and use some of the questions I’ve had since that show to outline how you could improve your sleep by making a few simple adjustments to your sleep. 

Better sleep starts here, the elixir to optimal human performance and happiness.

In my previous show about work life balance I lightly discussed becoming an unattached human. And in my podcast on spirituality I discussed ‘letting go’. Many have asked me for more on this topic, so here we go. I believe we can only become happy when we detach ourselves from things we need to be happy, this is where we get our POWER back.

In life we attach our happiness to things, to certain outcomes, to certain people, to our perception of how life should go, and it's this that is making us unhappy. If you want to be a free, powerful, happy human, this is the recipe.

Mo Gawdat is a legend, an inspirational writer and an all round good human. I had the pleasure of seeing him speak in 2023, and his presentation of the ONE word year was a profound one. In this podcast I outline this simple concept, how it’s been of impact to my life in 2024, and how I am shaping my 2025 to live a more fulfilling life. Use the one word year principal, I think you’ll love it like I do.

I believe HIIT Training will be a growing trend in the coming years.

Now I’m aware it's been popular for some time, but HIIT training has been bastardised a lot, and many people are not doing actual HIIT training. In this short podcast I review the research on HIIT, what it is, how you do it, how much you need to do it, and how it could help someone be fit, healthy and strong in less than 90 minutes per week.
